Exercise A Smarter Way By Diesel Dog
One of the biggest mistake that people make when exercising with weights – they do it wrong! Especially when using with free weights, whether you are talking about 5 lbs or 50 lbs, lifting dumb bells correctly is the key to building muscles and preventing injuries. That is the concept behind the prototype Diesel Dog LLC is working on. They are currently developing a system which connects dumb bells to an application on a Smart Phone via Bluetooth, either iOs or Android. The application then keeps a record of the wave lengths of an exercise as you do it. The idea is a trainer would perform the exercise first correctly, allowing for a correct record of wave lengths. Then, as the client performs the exercise they could tell if they were doing it right or wrong based on whether their wave lengths matched the trainers. Eric Zorij of Diesel Dog stated they are trying to add the ability to connect to social networks such as Twitter or Facebook into the finished project.
The Bluetooth barbell concept was a finalist in the Bluetooth Innovation World Cup of 2011. They just started developing the prototype little over five weeks ago and are continuing to improve it, they hope to have it in the iOS and Android Market as soon as they can.
